Minnesota Longitudinal Study of Risk and Adaptation

Research

Professor Roisman’s scholarly interests concern the legacy of early relationship experiences as a foundation for psychological, interpersonal, physical, and cognitive health across the lifespan. As such, his program of research focuses on the childhood antecedents of adaptation within the developmentally salient contexts of adolescence and adulthood. This work is multi-informant and multi-method, employing self-report, observational, psychophysiological, and interview-based methods with individuals and couples. In spanning multiple levels of a developmental analysis of individual and dyadic trajectories, his laboratory's goal is to provide insight into the childhood experiences and resources that scaffold adjustment in the years of maturity, with a particular focus on prospective assessment of individuals’ experiences within the normative range (e.g., direct observations of parental sensitive-responsiveness and romantic interactions) as well as atypical early care (e.g., objective reports of abuse and neglect in childhood).

For over two decades, Professor Roisman has been pursuing this research agenda through: (a) longitudinal investigations of the fate of early experience as a Co-PI on both the NICHD Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development and the Minnesota Longitudinal Study of Risk and Adaptation, (b) a programmatic set of observational laboratory analogue studies involving administering in-depth Adult Attachment Interviews to college students, stranger dyads, siblings, parents, and romantically involved couples (dating, engaged, married, gay male, and lesbian) about their childhood experiences, (c) experiments designed to better understand the ways in which interpersonal experiences are embodied in fMRI, electrophysiological, and autonomic activation, and (d) secondary analyses of large datasets that provide opportunities to demonstrate the utility of genetically informed, taxometric, and meta-analytic approaches for simultaneously resolving questions at the heart of social developmental theory while improving methodology in the study of the legacy of early experience.

In the next several years, Professor Roisman will continue to study to what extent, through what mechanisms, and for whom anthropometric indicators and biomarkers of adult physical health have their roots in childhood and adult interpersonal experiences. This program of research leverages data: (a) recently acquired from the large, normative-risk NICHD Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development cohort in their late 20s and early 30s with support from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) (PI: Bleil, R01HL130103; MPIs: Roisman and Bleil, R01HD091132), (b) archived and to be collected from the higher-risk Minnesota Longitudinal Study of Risk and Adaptation through midlife (PI: Simpson, R01AG039453, recently completed with funding from the National Institute on Aging; NIA), and (c) being collected from the large Minnesota Twin Registry and the Carolina African American Twin Study of Aging samples in late life with support from the NIA (MPIs: Roisman and Krueger, R01AG053217). Drawing on these landmark longitudinal investigations, as well as the Sibling Interaction and Behavior Study (a longitudinal study of adoptive children and their parents studied from when the children were in adolescence into midlife; MPIs: Roisman and Krueger; R01AG077742), Professor Roisman is also continuing to pursue with his colleagues the largest and most comprehensive studies ever undertaken on the developmental origins of adult attachment styles and states of mind, including secondary coding and analysis of data from the Collaboration on Attachment Transmissions Synthesis (CATS) Individual Participant Data (IPD) corpus, with support from the NICHD (PI: Roisman; R01HD102035). Taken together, this work will provide important prospective, longitudinal data from birth to adulthood on social, cognitive, and biological development and, via the Minnesota Twin Registry, Carolina African American Twin Study of Aging, and Sibling Interaction and Behavior Study, significantly improve causal inferences in the study of the developmental foundations of adult physical health, cognition, and well-being.

In addition, building on his long-standing interests in adolescent development, Professor Roisman also collaborates with Professor Suzy Sherf at the Pennsylvania State University to investigate the role of pubertal development and corresponding shifts in social-developmental tasks in the re-organization of the neural networks underlying face processing. This work is sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) (PI: Scherf, R01MH112573).
